    Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

    They also have Mike and Kyle Anderson contracts running down, and got to keep Naz Reid at a very reasonable deal. If they get back decent rotational pieces and decrease salary a bit in a KAT trade, it's about paying taxes around Gobert, waiting for him to come off the books (or trade him too if...

    Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

    Saddiq Bey is an interesting one, maybe(?). Hawks surely should wanna pay him, but they also have Young, Murray, Huerter, Bogdanovic, Capela (this one they might ship to keep Okongwu) and will need to pay Okongwu. Poku could be another one, as OKC may have enough talent and picks to feel like...

    Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

    Tho we do have a lot of guards, i'd like Quickley, but i agree with the notion that it would take a substantial offer to pry him away from the Knicks. Honestly, i thinks that even If maybe attainable cheaper, i don't know If i'd like the risk-reward at Pat Willians. Don't really fancy Okoro...

    Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

    Nor shooting, but i limited to talk over defensive strenghts, because there started a conversation between them especific for that side of the court Tho i even do believe that Okoro limitations on offense can reach the point of costing your offense in a way that hurts your defense through worse...

    Restricted Free Agents to Pursue

    And honestly, i'd expect the Wolves to match a McDaniels max offer, and had they traded KAT, something they'll problably do in the future, focus more on developing his offense would be a thing, which is another reason they problably should already gone that route

    O/U on Walker Kessler 3pt Attempts for Season

    One thing where extended range - not just 3 pointers, but midrange too - would give to his game is handoff actions like Sabonis at Sacramento (that should actually spread along the league, as they make for a way of using Kerr's playbook without a Steph Curry). They ran those at the preseason...

    Who will blow up in the West?

    For as much the Pelicans feels like headed towards nowhere at the moment, they also feel like they've got too much talent, to a degree where they could retool taking back 75 cents on the dollar and still making a playoff team that can challenge for homecourt advantage. I'd say Mavs, Warriors...

    O/U on Walker Kessler 3pt Attempts for Season

    I imagine in general that they working his shooting form and range in general should translate to long midrange and FTs. It's hard to find 34% 3pt shooters that hit below 70% from the line.

    Did we see the opening night rotation last night?

    Real difference i see for Sexton and THT as a starter (and the bench units) ain't really the playmaking, but how much they're fit to being between a 3rd to 4th option to shoot, the type of shots that fits their skills and one should take under those circumstances. Yet I reckon THT size, arm...

    Did we see the opening night rotation last night?

    I'd say maybe I have better hopes for It If there's THT instead of Sexton ? Maybe that would completely kill the spacing, but in terms of height and switching they'd be much better. Still would take subbing out THT for Sexton earlier. And i problably would prefer a wing for a guard there

    Different teams have different individual and collective dynamics and problems to take care of. In our case feels pretty safe to say that looking at how to distribute minutes and lineups among our main 10 players (THT, Dunn, Sexton, Keyonte, Clarkson, Ochai, Lauri, Collins, Olynyk and Kessler)...

    Kessler Will Not Win MVP Award

    Man, even your topics are in preseason form ?

    Did we see the opening night rotation last night?

    Basically that (you missed Ochai among regular rotation guys of the bench, and who knows bout Luka or Simone playing spot minutes, but around that). I imagine the next two games may serve as reps and test for another combinations when rotating the starters with bench unit, but the major looks...

    I liked the concept of Collins along Olynyk, and Lauri (plus Clarkson and THT), but this closing lineup feels like could use Collins and another wing (better If someone bigger than Ochai) instead of Kessler and 4 guards

    There some decent numbers of mishaps, miscommunications and bad individual defense, but it didn't felt our defense was the problem as a team, that what hurt it the most (as a team) was the turnovers and large periods of bad offense (outside of transition being great for opposite teams, being...

    Sexton and THT feelling unplayable at preseason (maybe even worse while being toghether) Hopefully It gets better for next games, as Clippers give you a quite unique look at the game
